FormSet, proposed by Chomsky (2021), is one of two primitive set formation operations on Workspace items in the theory of I-Language, the other primitive is Merge. In this paper, we investigate the particular properties of FormSet, distinct from Merge, across phenomena in the noun phrase and verb phrase domains. In particular, Workspace items input to FormSet must be a coherent collection of items that obey natural conditions on parallelism. We d…
